Social Responsibility
Making a positive contribution to society
Assuming our responsibilities
It is important to everyone at SAS that we work for a socially responsible company and are able to make a positive contribution to society.
As a profitable organisation, we believe it is necessary to donate financially and have carefully selected a few charities that are doing great things, both in the UK and overseas.
Their focus
Our collective home is in the process of being turned totally upside down which is leading to strife for almost all life on Earth.
What they do
It’s now common knowledge that one of the best tools to tackle the climate crisis and keep our temperatures from rising above 1.5C is to plant trees. They are also crucial to preventing ecological collapse.
At Ecologi we invest your money into projects that remove more greenhouse gasses than your own carbon footprint puts in.
Each month we support a range of carbon reduction projects that are certified at the very highest level by Gold Standard and equivalent.
